Tang Yin looked at Wang Song with disdain, and asked coldly: "An assassin is hiding in the Tavern? Didn't you already inspect it? Furthermore, the Tavern s are heavily guarded, so how did the assassins manage to sneak in? "

Wang Song wiped the sweat on his forehead and stammered, "Yes ? The assassin disguised himself as a craftsman, so ? That's why I snuck into the Tavern. I hope that the King will forgive us. "

So that's how it was! What a cunning assassin. Presumably the assassin had long known that he and Ling Shuang would pass through the Chang City, and had also planned to stay at the Chang City, so he had long since made his arrangements.

If not for the fact that he was awake at the time, he and Ling Shuang would really have been assassins, and would already be dead at the Yellow Springs.

He narrowed his eyes and said word by word, "No matter what, we have to capture this group of assassins." Otherwise, there would be endless troubles in the future.

He was muttering to himself. However, Wang Song thought that Tang Yin was talking to him, and quickly bowed respectfully, "Rest assured King, even if I have to dig three feet out of the ground, I will definitely catch the assassin and bring him to the King."

Wang Song's words were something that Tang Yin liked to hear, he nodded and said: "Go and investigate, within two days, you must give this king a result."

"This humble subject obeys!" Wang Song answered as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. For the next two days, he was not afraid that the assassin would fly away.

Wang Song hastily accepted the orders and left. He ordered the Zeping County Army to close all the city gates outside the city and seal all the waterways outside. At the same time, a large number of county soldiers began searching the city.

In a short period of time, every part of Chang City City was filled with grass and trees, filled with a dense, desolate atmosphere. Even though the sky was already bright, there were still very few people on the streets, and the various shops on both sides of the road had all stopped business, as the doors and windows were tightly shut.

Because they were going to investigate the assassin's relationship, Tang Yin and Ling Shuang would stay in the Chang City for the time being. The spies of the Sky Eye and the Earth Web, as well as the local army that was cooperating with the Chang City with all their might, chased after the assassin.

Wang Song's abilities were not to be praised, but that did not mean that there were no capable people under him.

There was a good scout in the county. His name was Gao Mucheng, and he was from the Southern region of Feng Country Mountain Range. His ancestors and fathers were all coroners, and only then did he begin to cultivate the Spirit Martial Realm.

Because he was a coroner who came from a family, Gao Mucheng's mind was extremely detailed and was good at observing the details. While everyone else was searching for the assassin from door to door like a housefly, he was constantly searching for him on both sides of the river.

In the end, they still allowed the assassin to escape. However, according to the officers in charge of the Guard Camp, one of the assassins was injured, and since there was someone injured, and they were running away in such a hurry, there would definitely be some clues left. It all depended on whether they could be discovered or not.

Maybe the Heavens did not disappoint someone, or maybe Gao Mucheng's plans were too accurate. Maybe after patrolling for an entire day, he really did find some clues. It was a piece of silver, mostly buried in the silt of the river, with only a tiny bit of it exposed.

If it was anyone else, they would not even be able to see it. Even if they did, they would think it was their luck that they picked up the silver. However, Gao Mucheng was able to quickly determine from the color of the silver that it had not been dropped for long, which was a matter of a few days. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for the citizens of the city to go to a place like the river, which was filled with mud.

Based on these judgements, Gao Mucheng suspected that the silver could have been accidentally left behind by the assassin while he was climbing onto the shore from the river. What was interesting was that the silver was in a unique shape, shaped like a plum blossom. And according to Gao Mucheng's knowledge, in the entire Chang City City, there was only one place where all the silver could be turned into a plum blossom shape.

Right now, he was not sure if the assassin had anything to do with Wantong Silk Village, but he was certain that the assassin had at least been there and had bought things there. Otherwise, he would not have the silver pieces unique to Wantong Silk Village.

He knew Wang Song's worth of work well, furthermore, the boss of the Wan Tong Silk Village was a well-known local rich man, his business scope was very wide, and he had dealings with Wang Song often. Gao Mucheng felt that even if the assassin really had something to do with the Wan Tong Silk Villa, Wang Song would probably suppress this matter. Furthermore, he did not wish to work under Wang Song's hand for his entire life.

He immediately went to Dark Arrow's leader, Cheng Jin, to explain his findings and deductions to him after meeting with him.

After Cheng Jin heard it, he immediately realized that Gao Mucheng's discovery was very important, and his deduction was reasonable. Even if the Wantong Silk Strait didn't have anything to do with the assassin, he should have at least seen an assassin before. As long as they could grasp the assassin's appearance, it would save them a lot of effort.

He asked Gao Mucheng if he wanted to go to the Wan Tong Silk Villa to search. Gao Mucheng shook his head again and again, and replied sternly: "General Cheng, the big boss of the Wan Tong Silk Villa is called Meng Pingan, he is a famous local rich man, and is also a benevolent man. He has high prestige, and without any solid evidence, he rashly went to search, and is afraid that it will cause the citizens to be unhappy, and cause unnecessary trouble."

Cheng Jin rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, then asked: "What do you think?"

"However, we should first investigate secretly and investigate the situation. If there are any abnormalities, it would not be too late to investigate it clearly." Gao Mucheng cupped his hands and said.

Cheng Jin laughed, nodded his head, and said: "Alright, I will listen to you, I will follow you."

Gao Mucheng was overjoyed, the leader of the hidden arrows, Cheng Jin, was able to go with him and investigate secretly, what a great honor this was! He did not even decline his offer and bowed again, saying, "With General Cheng by my side, this subordinate's heart is even more assured."

"Haha ? ?" Cheng Jin laughed, facing upwards: "If your deduction is correct, and Wan Tong Satin Village is indeed related to the assassin, then I will personally request for orders from the King to bring you under my Dark Arrow camp."

Gao Mucheng suspected that he had misheard. Cheng Jin wanted to keep him in the hidden arrow, how could that be possible? He had always only accepted Spirit Cultivator of Dark s as his secret arrows, but he cultivated the Light Spirit Force!

Actually, Cheng Jin already had the intention to absorb the Spirit Cultivator of Light, and now, the growth of the Dark Arrow was much slower than the expansion of his Feng Country, so it needed a large number of people to replenish it, and the Spirit Cultivator of Dark was too small, so Cheng Jin also had the intention to expand the scope of recruiting his subordinates, but he had not found the chance to ask the King, if this time Gao Mucheng could really help him catch the assassin, then it would be good for him to take this opportunity and ask the King to recruit Gao Mucheng as his subordinate, in order to break the tradition of the Dark Arrow only recruiting Spirit Cultivator of Dark.

From the bottom of his heart, Cheng Jin did not have any prejudice. No matter if it was the Spirit Cultivator of Dark or the Spirit Cultivator of Light, as long as they had the ability, as long as they could do things and accomplish things, he would very much appreciate them.2

That evening, Cheng Jin and Gao Mucheng arrived at the Wantong Silk Villa wearing casual clothes.

There were almost no shops in the city now, and the Wantong Silk Manor was no exception. Gao Mucheng glanced at Cheng Jin, then walked to the front of the shop and powerfully hammered on the door boards. At the same time, he shouted loudly: "Open up, open up, quickly open up!"

A young servant opened the door of the shop, opened it a crack, and looked outside. Seeing that it was Gao Mucheng, the young man's expression changed, and he said: "General Gao, your people have come to search, why are you searching again?"

Gao Mucheng was a deputy general in the County Army, his position wasn't that high, but it wasn't bad either, and there were quite a few people who knew him. Gao Mucheng waved his hand at the young man and said, "We are not here to search.

"Huh?" The young man was stunned for a moment, then said with a face full of smiles: "General Gao, I am really sorry, but our store is not open today, please come back another day!"

"No." Gao Mucheng tilted his body and pointed to Cheng Jin behind him, then said: "My friend will return to Feng Country with the King tomorrow. Since you have the time now, you should buy some gifts to bring back home, little brother can do something for you!"

Oh, it sounds like this person is someone from Feng King's side! The young man looked up and down at Cheng Jin, he did not dare push the matter any further, and opened the door, smiling: "The two generals, please come in."

Cheng Jin followed Gao Mucheng into the silks shop, which had quite a bit of space inside. It was divided into two floors, and the floor below, where the counter was placed, was covered with ordinary silk, for ordinary people, while the second floor was a lot more exquisite, and the prices were naturally higher as well. It was specially prepared for officials and nobles.

Gao Mucheng and Cheng Jin were both generals, so even if the young servant wasn't clear about Cheng Jin's identity, looking at the degree of respect Gao Mucheng had for him, he could guess that's status was extraordinary.

The waiter led the two of them to the second floor. After they sat down, he served them tea and snacks, looking rather uncourteous.

After taking care of the two of them, the waiter then took out the silks and silks from under the counter and placed them on top of the counter. As he pointed at them, he introduced them, "Generals, this is the most famous plate of the Zeping County, it is made in a plate and is made with fine workmanship and excellent workmanship. It can be said to be the best of the best, the two generals can touch it, it is smooth and light, wearing it is as though it is light and weightless."

The waiter was extremely eloquent, introducing the two without end.

Cheng Jin chuckled as he stood up, he walked to the front desk and touched it, and then nodded his head, although the waiter was exaggerating, but the content was not bad, and could not be considered as high grade.

He didn't think too much into it and didn't even ask for the price. He said, "Give me this brocade ?" Twenty feet. "

Ah!" The waiter was secretly speechless. This guy's tone was not small at all. The moment he asked for twenty feet, he did not even ask for the price. The waiter laughed dryly and said, "General, the price of the brocade is not cheap, it costs five taels of silver a foot!
